Another RogueOlympics entry, where the prompt was “Balance”. Which brought to mind the design principle of balance, with the simplest version being symmetrical balance. Cue a very fun day building this spaceship and playing with the color-scheme. Between it and the display stand, 100 elements were used.

I keep on fear, keep on loathing
Nothing brings it on I keep on falling
Decide what it is I can not find
It's subsides what you make it
Never feel like you're gonna break it
It's gonna be alright alright
Sleep until the morning comes
The sun will warm your soul
Sleep until the morning comes for you
Til the morning
it's alright
I can walk into the sunlight, into the day,
I feel it falling, nothing comes to my mind
Bring it on in a different tide
I feel alright, alright
I feel strong, i feel rigid
It's nothing to do with the vision
Oh feels so right, so right
Sleep on tight, sleep on tight
Sleep until the sunlight
Sleep on tight, til the sunlight burns you happy
Til the sunlight burns you happy, till the sunlight burns a happy whole in
Your heart,
In your heart
In your heart...

What:
Part 3 of the Peggy's Cove tour, Finally!!
When:
Just as the sun was setting last Sunday evening. About 5 minutes before the last shot I posted.
Where:
Peggy's Cove
Nova Scotia, Canada
About:
So, continuing from part 2... this was taken from exactly the same spot on the dock in PC but I turned about 45 degrees to right. So if I can manage to stitch these three shots together I shot be able to get over 180 degree view of the cove. I don't really have any shots looking behind where I am here but it certainly isn't as picturesque as these three views. To get another angle or perspective of where I am here, check out this photo from last week where I put a note right on this dock. It was shot from the road down at the end of the cove. You can see the little dory there if you look really close.
Processing:
This was shot with the normal 3 frames bracketed (0,-2,+2ev) and I manually blended the exposures in photoshop so I could get the proper sky combined with the proper foreground exposures. I did a layer of curves and a little tweak of the shadows/highlights. After resizing and posting I can see it's over saturated but what the hell, it's meant to look like a postcard! :-)
Please, no invites or crazy glittery graphics. Just a comment is nice. Thank You

The hare must have thought I was a giant tortoise lol...either way, he was nonplussed enough to let me get to within 4 feet of him...which was nice.:)
Have a wonderful Monday Ya'll..:)
Hare ~ From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ~
"Jackrabbit", "Lepus", and "Leveret" For other uses, see Hare (disambiguation), Jackrabbit (disambiguation), Lepus (disambiguation) and Leveret (disambiguation).
Hares and jackrabbits are leporids belonging to the genus Lepus. Hares are classified into the same family as rabbits and are of similar size, form, and diet as rabbits. They are generally herbivorous, long-eared, and fast runners, and typically live solitarily or in pairs. Hare species are native to Africa, Eurasia, North America, and the Japanese archipelago.
Five leporid species with "hare" in their common names are not considered true hares: the hispid hare (Caprolagus hispidus), and four species known as red rock hares (comprising Pronolagus). Meanwhile, jackrabbits are hares rather than rabbits.
A hare less than one year old is called a leveret. The collective noun for a group of hares is a "drove"
Biology ~ Hares are swift animals: The European brown hare (Lepus europaeus) can run up to 56 km/h (35 mph). The five species of jackrabbit found in central and western North America are able to run at 64 km/h (40 mph), and can leap up to 3m (ten feet) at a time.
Normally a shy animal, the European brown hare changes its behavior in spring, when hares can be seen in daytime chasing one another; this appears to be competition between males to attain dominance (and hence more access to breeding females). During this spring frenzy, hares can be seen "boxing"; one hare striking another with its paws (probably the origin of the term "mad as a March hare"). For a long time, this had been thought to be intermale competition, but closer observation has revealed it is usually a female hitting a male to prevent copulation.
Differences from rabbits ~ Hares do not bear their young below ground in a burrow as do other leporids, but rather in a shallow depression or flattened nest of grass called a form. Young hares are adapted to the lack of physical protection, relative to that afforded by a burrow, by being born fully furred and with eyes open. They are hence precocial, and are able to fend for themselves soon after birth. By contrast, the related rabbits and cottontail rabbits are altricial, having young that are born blind and hairless.
All rabbits (except the cottontail rabbits) live underground in burrows or warrens, while hares (and cottontail rabbits) live in simple nests above the ground, and usually do not live in groups. Hares are generally larger than rabbits, with longer ears, and have black markings on their fur. Hares have not been domesticated, while rabbits are kept as house pets. The domestic pet known as the "Belgian hare" is a rabbit that has been selectively bred to resemble a hare.
Hares have jointed, or kinetic, skulls, unique among mammals. They have 48 chromosomes while rabbits have 44.

V tej dobe jediná z piatich prevádzkyschopných normálne rozchodných MXS624 (dodané kanadskou MLW, dnes Bombardier) miestne označená ako 060-DP-151 vozila jediný osobný vlak v Tunisku vedený v klasickej súprave na rozchode 1435 mm. Ostávajúcich 17 vyrobených pre SNCFT je prevádzkovaných na úzkom rozchode a sú používané na vedenie nákladných vlakov.
Fotka zachytáva popoludňajší vlak TA/013 [Tunis Ville – Ghardimaou] v úseku Sidi M´Himech – Béja s panorámou viaduktu pri meste Béja, ktorý je turisticky vyhľadávaný na fotografie aj pre bežných ľudí, ktorí o železnicu nejavia záujem. V tomto traťovom úseku sa nachádza dokonca aj druhý viadukt, no vzhľadom k jeho menej dostupnej polohe nie je tak známy ako tento ležiaci nad hlavnou cestou C52.
V tom čase šlo o jedinú klasickú súpravu jazdiacu po tejto trati, pričom ostatné vlaky boli vedené v čínskych jednotkách CSR Nanjing. Tento stav sa behom roku 2024 zmenil a po tejto trati, kde osobné vlaky končili v pohraničnej stanici Ghardimaou, jazdí pravidelne 1 pár rýchlika, spojujúceho Tunis a alžírske štvrťmiliónové mesto Annaba. Ten je tiež vedený v klasickej súprave a jeho vozbu zaisťujú alžírske hnacie vozidlá.
El conjunto religioso que forman el Templo y el Convento de la Purísima Concepción, representa uno de los logros más importantes de la población que habitó la entonces villa de San Miguel el Grande (hoy de Allende) hacia el siglo XVIII.
El Convento Real de la Purísima Concepción, fue construido por iniciativa de María Josefa Lina de la Canal y Hervas (1736 – 1770).
A la muerte de sus padres, María Josefa Lina de la Canal heredó un capital de 70 000 pesos. Hacia 1751 con escasos quince años de edad, dio a conocer sus deseos de ser religiosa.
Fue el padre Luís Felipe Neri de Alfaro el primero en conocer los deseos de María Josefa, a quien el mismo recomendó trasladarse al santuario de Atotonilco, para que con el amparo de la oración y de la penitencia definiera sus pensamientos. Tras ocho días de encierro, reiteraba no sólo su decisión por tomar los hábitos, sino también de fundar un convento en la villa de San Miguel el Grande dedicado con profundo fervor a la inmaculada Concepción, empleando el capital que le había heredado su padre.
El 21 de Septiembre de 1754 el rey Fernando VI emitió en España la licencia para la edificación del recinto.
Desde los primeros momentos de la fundación del convento hasta la inauguración del nuevo edificio, Maria Josefa de la Canal trabajó para sostener económica y espiritualmente el proyecto que ella misma había ideado.
Murió cinco años después de que se inaugurara el convento de la Concepción (el 9 de agosto de 1770).
La construcción del Templo y Convento de la Purísima Concepción fue encomendada a un arquitecto queretano, Francisco Martínez Gudiño.
Gudiño fue auxiliado con el trabajo de tres artistas originarios de San Miguel: Pedro Joaquín de Tapia y Salvador Antonio Hernández, experimentados alarifes y maestros de arquitectura, así también contó con la asesoría de Francisco de Lara Villagomez.
La construcción del recito comenzó en 1755 y diez años después (el 28 de diciembre de 1765) se inauguró con el traslado de religiosas al nuevo edificio. El templo se encontraba aún inconcluso, le faltaban las torres, campanario presbiterio y altares, mismos que se concluyeron durante la primera mitad del siglo XIX.
La cúpula era otra de las grandes ausencias en el templo. Fue obra del maestro albañil Zeferino Gutiérrez (quien construyó también la fachada pseudo gótica del templo parroquial) inspirándose en la iglesia monumental de los Inválidos del París, y, asesorado por un gran artista mexicano conocido popularmente como el Dr. Atl.
El Templo de la Concepción posee una valiosa colección pictórica, obra de renombrados pintores novo hispanos del siglo XVIII; sólo por mencionar, dos retratos de la Virgen María y Jesús, del pintor Miguel Cabrera; una serie de la vida de la Virgen del pincel de Juan Rodríguez Juárez; un Corazón de Jesús del pintor Jesús Gómez, que data de 1820 y algunas obras de Miguel Antonio Martínez de Pocasangre.

Last evening/night I finally got the time to go over my Aurora shots from Tuesday... I was up until 0130 in the morning editing some of the shots. When I finally got so tired that I was completely uncritical as to what I was doing, I went to bed.
Anyways, I had a glorious evening shooting Aurora. I have very little experience in doing that, so I was very anxious as to how i would look when I got it over on the computer back home. Got some really great shots. But the best was just standing there, right beneath some of the most vibrant Aurora I've ever seen (and I have lived well above the arctic circle all my life, I've seen a fair share of Auroras).
Hope you all like it and have a GREAT weekend.

Hagia Sophia (from the Greek: Ἁγία Σοφία, "Holy Wisdom"; Latin: Sancta Sophia or Sancta Sapientia; Turkish: Ayasofya) is a former Orthodox patriarchal basilica, later a mosque, and now a museum in Istanbul, Turkey. From the date of its dedication in 360 until 1453, it served as the Greek Patriarchal cathedral of Constantinople, except between 1204 and 1261, when it was converted to a Roman Catholic cathedral under the Latin Patriarch of Constantinople of the Western Crusader established Latin Empire. The building was a mosque from 29 May 1453 until 1931, when it was secularized. It was opened as a museum on 1 February 1935.[1]
The Church was dedicated to the Logos, the second person of the Holy Trinity,[2] its dedication feast taking place on 25 December, the anniversary of the Birth of the incarnation of the Logos in Christ.[2] Although it is sometimes referred to as Sancta Sophia (as though it were named after Saint Sophia), sophia is the phonetic spelling in Latin of the Greek word for wisdom – the full name in Greek being Ναός τῆς Ἁγίας τοῦ Θεοῦ Σοφίας, "Church of the Holy Wisdom of God".[3][4]
Famous in particular for its massive dome, it is considered the epitome of Byzantine architecture and is said to have "changed the history of architecture."[5] It was the largest cathedral in the world for nearly a thousand years, until Seville Cathedral was completed in 1520. The current building was originally constructed as a church between 532 and 537 on the orders of the Byzantine Emperor Justinian and was the third Church of the Holy Wisdom to occupy the site, the previous two having both been destroyed by rioters. It was designed by the Greek scientists Isidore of Miletus, a physicist, and Anthemius of Tralles, a mathematician.[6]
The church contained a large collection of holy relics and featured, among other things, a 49 foot (15 m) silver iconostasis. It was the seat of the Patriarch of Constantinople and the religious focal point of the Eastern Orthodox Church for nearly one thousand years. It is the church in which Cardinal Humbert in 1054 excommunicated Michael I Cerularius – which is commonly considered the start of the Great Schism.
In 1453, Constantinople was conquered by the Ottoman Turks under Sultan Mehmed II, who subsequently ordered the building converted into a mosque.[7] The bells, altar, iconostasis, and sacrificial vessels were removed and many of the mosaics were plastered over. Islamic features – such as the mihrab, minbar, and four minarets – were added while in the possession of the Ottomans. It remained a mosque until 1931 when it was closed to the public for four years. It was re-opened in 1935 as a museum by the Republic of Turkey.
For almost 500 years the principal mosque of Istanbul, Hagia Sophia served as a model for many other Ottoman mosques, such as the Sultan Ahmed Mosque (Blue Mosque of Istanbul), the Şehzade Mosque, the Süleymaniye Mosque, the Rüstem Pasha Mosque and the Kılıç Ali Paşa Mosque.
WISH YOU A GREAT AND HAPPY DAY MY FRIENDS XOXOXO

HBW.. !! have a great evening.. thanks for stopping by..
new year's eve in athens: the view from pendeli mountain towards ymittos.
as we progress through life, we tend to ignore our surroundings, navigating through life based on prior experience instead of taking in information anew, selectively noticing only that which we have never before encountered. i suppose it's a basic strategy of survival, helping our species endure in an otherwise bewildering environment… at the same time, it is one of our properties that we sometimes need to defy.
imagine that your life is the length of the sidewalk of a city block… at first you're in the beginning of it, then the middle and soon you will be at the end.* how do you make every step worthwhile? i honestly don't know… but suspect i've found some clues.
appreciate immense scale by looking up at the sky and peer down at the smallest beings. get a fresh perspective by finding a spot to gaze across great distances across a city or a landscape or the sea. observe the simplest but wondrous tools that bring an unprecedented quality of life. venture to a new place on the planet and see how things can be confusingly different yet exactly the same. consider the wonders of science, simple and complex, that help you achieve the extraordinary, communicate with people across the globe and discover the profoundest of secrets of the cosmos. have fun!! learn or do something that you've never before attempted. search out heart-wrenching art and writing that moves you to elation and tears. feel compassion for every single human being around you, every fellow traveler in life who is just trying to make sense of it all, each in his or her own way. have a lingering look at your home, family, and friends… cherish them because tomorrow -- and i do mean, literally, tomorrow -- you may not have them anymore.
each of us has arrived in an infinitely exciting universe, against astronomical odds, for a brief moment in infinite time. none of us should waste it... not a single day. there is nothing that is boring -- there is nothing that might not provoke the deepest awe.
a year ago i wondered how i could possibly find 365 interesting things to shoot -- how silly i was. i've revisited the mundane and amplified my perception. i've felt exuberant inspiration and abysmal grief. i'm indebted to family and friends, old and new, who not only put up with my obsession -- but wisely encouraged me.
and all because i decided to pick up a camera.

* "now imagine these two characters, named christine (miranda july) and richard (john hawkes) as they walk down the street. she suggests that the block they are walking down is their lives. and so now they are halfway down the street and halfway through their lives, and before long they will be at the end. it is impossible to suggest how poetic this scene is; when it's over, you think, that was a perfect scene, and no other scene can ever be like it.' - roger egbert, a review of 'me and you and everyone we know'"
108/365 - Tears And Rain - James Blunt
Bad weather over France this days, it rained all day so we had to deal with.
I had really no idea for today's shot so we went to town with Loic.
Today is something new, something different, maybe more poetic and abstract.
Don't know what to think about but I kind like this shot.
I've been tagged by Lisa yesterday, thanks to her, so here is ten things about me :
1 - I love to hang out barefoot, I love to wear just a short, I love when it's warm and sunny.
2 - Kelly Slater is a very inspiring person for me.
3 - I'm in love with Tristan Prettyman and Katie Melua, just love their music.
4 - I love to travel, I'm lucky I've seen various places and countries, I can't wait to travel to Australia one day.
5 - I quit sport and focus on photography after a motorbike accident that took me 4 surgeries on my right knee to recover
6 - I don't like to run but I like to swim... that's maybe not surprising !
7 - I smoke too much, I decided to stop smoking until the end of 2010...
8 - My brother has always been inspiring for me, I may have try close to everything he did
9 - I was scared to see what's under the surface until I dive with sharks last year
10 - I would love to know how to play guitare, I try, but I've to admit I'm really bad at it !
So I'm going to tag 10 contacts that I like to check their stream and they'll do this 10 stuff if they want !

Piątkowy poranek, kilka minut po godzinie szóstej rano, pora można by rzec nieco abstrakcyjna... pasja jest jednak pasją... czas nie gra roli
Na poznańskiej Ławicy ląduje niecodzienny gość prosto z 🇧🇬Bułgarii - McDonell Douglas MD-82✈️ w barwach European Air Charter.
Nie licząc jednej maszyny zarejestrowanej na 🇺🇦Ukrainie dla Bravo Airways, Bułgaria jest jedynym europejskim operatorem tego typu samolotów. Dwie maszyny należą do ALK Airlines ( LZ-ADV, LZ-DEO), pozostałe latają w barwach European Air Charter. Obecnie przewoźnik posiada 7 samolotów MD-82 z średnią wieku 29 lat.
Piątkowy okaz po raz pierwszy wzbił się w powietrze 1 lutego 1993 roku, początkowo latał dla włoskiej Alitalia, od 2010 przeszedł w posiadanie bułgarskiego operatora. ( www.planespotters.net/airframe/mcdonnell-douglas-md-82-lz... )
Sam przewoźnik do stycznia 2021 nosił nazwę Bułgarian Air Charter, jest spółką akcyjną z siedzibą w Sofii, założoną 22 lata temu (2000 rok). European Air Charter współpracuje z wiodącymi europejskimi touroperatorami, m.in. jak TUI, DER Touristik/Exim, Coral Travel Poland, FTI. To już kolejny sezon, kiedy możemy podziwiać tą konstrukcję na polskich lotniskach. Konstrukcję, która zapewne niebawem odchodzić będzie do przeszłości.

The first XJ was launched in 1968, was also the last Jaguar saloon to have had the input of Sir William Lyons, the company's founder. The XJ6, using 2.8 litre and 4.2 litre straight-six cylinder versions of Jaguar's XK engine replaced most of Jaguar's saloons which, in the 1960s, had expanded to four separate ranges. Power-assisted steering and leather upholstery were standard on the 2.8L De Luxe and 4.2L models. An unusual feature, inherited from the Jaguar Mk. X and S-Type, was the provision of twin fuel tanks positioned on each side of the boot and filled using two separately lockable filler caps.
This was the 370th XJ6 4.2 litre right-hand drive car. The colour is Sable, with Cinnamon interior trim. For the first two years of its life, it was the personal transport of Sir William Lyons, the Chairman of Jaguar Cars Limited. Price when new: £2,258

Reial Santuari de Nostra Senyora de la Font de la Salut.
La història del Real Santuari va començar amb l'edificació d'una petita capella en 1384. La Font de la Salut, comença a ser coneguda més enllà de les fronteres comarcals. Il·lustres personatges de la història d'Espanya com el papa Alexandre VI, Carles V i Felip II, entre uns altres, amb la seva visita i interès pel santuari, van afavorir que entre els segles XV i XVIII estigués acabat aquest impressionant conjunt. L'ermita té dos accessos amb portades adintelades. Remata l'edifici amb una espadanya de l'antic temple gòtic del 1439. El seu interior és d'una sola nau dividida en quatre trams amb creuer. Arcs de mig punt en la nau i arc triomfal en la capçalera. En la capella major es troba el camarí de la Verge i al capdamunt, als peus, el cor amb barana de fusta del segle XVIII. Entre la seva decoració, sobresurten les pintures al fresc atribuïdes tradicionalment als Guilló, encara que la historiografia moderna ha revelat que no són obra d'aquests artistes. El seu estil és de caràcter figuratiu-alegòric quan tracta els personatges bíblics, i un to més narratiu, en les escenes de la Verge de la Font de la Salut. Són també importants, les yeseries daurades amb motius de rocalla, així com les restes d'un fris de sòcols de Manises.
Segons compte la tradició, en el segle XIV, va tenir lloc l'aparició a dos pastors d'una imatge mariana, dintre de la deu d'aigües curatives que allí es troba. Des de llavors, els romers de nombrosos municipis de l'entorn, recorren tots els anys aquest camí, jalonat per set creus de terme que simbolitzen els Set Dolors de la Verge.

In case you haven't caught on to what's happening, I taped the fortune from my crappy fortune cookie to the mirror, and then made an attempt to get macro-esque with it. Just trying something new. Actually, I didn't even eat Chinese last night... wasn't even supposed to be my cookie, but if it's sitting on the kitchen counter, you snooze you lose, ha.
Since uploading this, it means I'm officially caught up from posting backlog which is a wonderful, wonderful thing and a great feeling. Over the past two days, I've been watching videos my contacts have posted in the Hi, I'm... group. Just have to say they are amazing, and Flickr really is a great community. Some people outside of the Flickr world don't seem understand, but you guys really are great friends and just awesome people, who have great personalities that take fabulous photos.

Listening Crepuscolaria - Otto Ohm
Mi chiedo cosa lascerà
l’estate dopo il suo rumore
dopo un’attesa così lunga per raggiungerla
non sembra mai così speciale
Ti chiamerò solo se chiamerai
e ci sarò solo se ci sarai
Crepuscolari come le illusioni
svanito il giorno solo cattivi pensieri
il ricordo di un’estate che si arena sulla spiaggia
come collanine rotte sulla sabbia
rivivere il ritorno come cambiamento
la partenza come senza ritorno
alla fine dell’estate ti rimane dentro
il sapore delle libertà che in fondo hai scelto
D’estate non c’è tempo per la solitudine
la lasci a casa insieme a tutte le bollette
nelle giornate che trascorri sotto il sole puoi
dimenticare tutte quante le promesse fatte
Ci sarò solo se ci sarai
ti chiamerò solo se chiamerai
Crepuscolari come le illusioni
svanito il giorno solo cattivi pensieri
il ricordo di un’estate che si arena sulla spiaggia
come collanine rotte sulla sabbia
rivivere il ritorno come cambiamento
la partenza come senza ritorno
alla fine dell’estate ti rimane dentro
il sapore delle libertà che in fondo hai scelto
Ti chiamerò solo se chiamerai
e ci sarò solo se ci sarai
Crepuscolari come le illusioni
svanito il giorno solo cattivi pensieri
il ricordo di un’estate che si arena sulla spiaggia
come collanine rotte sulla sabbia
rivivere il ritorno come cambiamento
la partenza come senza ritorno
alla fine dell’estate ti rimane dentro
il sapore delle libertà che in fondo hai scelto
Sant Romà de Sau és una entitat de població del municipi de Vilanova de Sau a la comarca d'Osona. Els seus orígens situen a la població de Sau en el 917 i, l'església parroquial, al segle XI. L'actual població es va formar quan al 1962 en va construir l'embassament de Sau que havia de cobrir l'antic poblat. Tot i estar força despoblat (ja al nomenclàtor de 1860 la parròquia figurava com "deshabitada"), comptava amb unes quantes masies, un pont romànic i una bonica església que reapareix en èpoques de sequera.

Sant Romà de Sau is an entity of the municipality of Vilanova de Sau Osona to. Its origins lie in the town of Sau in 917, and the parish church, in the eleventh century. The current population was formed in 1962 when it was built in the Sau reservoir had filled the old town. Despite being quite deserted (since the 1860 Gazetteer of the parish listed as "uninhabited"), had a few farmhouses, a bridge and a beautiful Romanesque church, which reappears in times of drought.

Impressive, atmospheric, just a little frightening, the long black and red hooded and robed figures of the Procession de la Sanch march slowly through the streets of Perpignan to the solemn beat of black veiled tambourines The Procession de la Sanch, which takes place every ’Vendredi Saint’, (Good Friday), opens the celebration of the Easter Holy week.
The brotherhood of “La Sanch” (the blood) was founded in1416 by Vincent Ferrier at the church of St Jaques in Perpignan, its origin to assist and accompany the condemned to their execution. A preacher, Ferrier is said to have undergone a life changing experience in 1398 when he nearly died of the fever, but was miraculously cured after Christ appeared to him in an apparition. He attracted followers, penitents from all walks of life, who he led around Europe, preaching penance and helping sinners to prepare for judgment and punishment. The wearing of the black and red hooded robes (orcaparutxe) was to prevent criminals being recognized and ‘lynched’ in the streets as pay back for crimes committed, and prisoners, penitents, (there to give solace to the person about to die), and executioner were hooded for maximum confusion.
The procession as a whole commemorates the Passion and the Agony of Christ. At the head of the parade walks a red robed figure “le regidor”, warning the crowds of the procession’s approach. by intermittently ringing an iron bell as he leads the penitents to the gallows. They carry ‘misteris’ (full-size representations of the different scenes of the Passion) through the streets of Perpignan. Of course, over the years the Sanch has become a great crowd puller and a fabulous photo opportunity but for the ‘penitents’ carrying crosses, crucifixes and religious statues weighing up to thirty to fifty kilos, this re- enactment of Christ’s Passion is real enough. The procession takes place in silence – some walk bare-foot, others are on their knees…... only the sound of the tambourine, and the occasional peal of the bell breaks the eerie atmosphere, along with the Goigs, traditional Easter songs which accompany the march.
Over the centuries the Sanch has been forbidden several times. It has always survived.
Dharamsala - Monaci tibetani in attesa davanti alla residenza del Dalai Lama a McLeod Ganj
Nel Marzo del 1959 il 14° Dalai Lama fuggì in India dopo il fallimento della rivolta tibetana contro l'invasione del Tibet da parte dell'esercito cinese. Il Governo Indiano gli offrì rifugio a Dharamsala e nel 1960 vi stabilì la sede del del governo tibetano in esilio, mentre
McLeod Ganj, a pochi chilometri da Dharamsala, è diventata la residenza ufficiale del Dalai Lama e la principale destinazione turistica e di pellegrinaggio dello stato dell'Himachal Pradesh.
In March 1959 the 14th Dalai Lama fled to India after the failed uprising in 1959 in Tibet against the Communist Party of China. The Indian Government offered him refuge in Dharamshala, where he set up the Government of Tibet in exile in 1960, while McLeodGanj became his official residence and also home to several Buddhist monasteries and thousands of Tibetan refugees. Over the years, McLeodGanj evolved into an important tourist and pilgrimage destination.

The Snow-Storm
by Ralph Waldo Emerson
Announced by all the trumpets of the sky,
Arrives the snow, and, driving o'er the fields,
Seems nowhere to alight: the whited air
Hides hills and woods, the river, and the heaven,
And veils the farm-house at the garden's end.
The sled and traveller stopped, the courier's feet
Delayed, all friends shut out, the housemates sit
Around the radiant fireplace, enclosed
In a tumultuous privacy of storm.
Come see the north wind's masonry.
Out of an unseen quarry evermore
Furnished with tile, the fierce artificer
Curves his white bastions with projected roof
Round every windward stake, or tree, or door.
Speeding, the myriad-handed, his wild work
So fanciful, so savage, nought cares he
For number or proportion. Mockingly,
On coop or kennel he hangs Parian wreaths;
A swan-like form invests the hidden thorn;
Fills up the farmer's lane from wall to wall,
Maugre the farmer's sighs; and, at the gate,
A tapering turret overtops the work.
And when his hours are numbered, and the world
Is all his own, retiring, as he were not,
Leaves, when the sun appears, astonished Art
To mimic in slow structures, stone by stone,
Built in an age, the mad wind's night-work,
The frolic architecture of the snow.

If you have the time, worth a look!
Another shot from my home away from home...NY Botanical Gardens. I never get enough of their Water Lily and Lotus Pond, no matter what time of year it is! I really do enjoy my time here! There is such a big difference between the NY and Brooklyn Gardens, Brooklyn, besides being small is more peaceful I think. But I love them both!
The beautiful changes in life are constant in the gardens, but none so noticeable as in the ponds.
I want to truly thank you my friends, for all your visits and comments. Much appreciated!
Be well all.....

Explore...much thanks!
If you are a die hard Mac user like I am, then no trip to NY is complete without a visit to the Apple Store on 5th Ave near Central Park. The store is below ground and entry is through a well guarded glass cube, and although no photos are allowed within the glass cube or in the store, I managed to squeeze off this shot from just inside.....:-)))
Take a look at this panoramic view of the area on opening day in 2006
BTW, for those of you who have frequently asked about the processing I use, it is almost exclusively done using Aperture II (Apple's Professional Photo Program) on my Mac Book Pro. For me Apple provides the right combination of tools and I could not imagine being without them....:-)))

September 2012, update
Hi folks. I reprocessed (and replaced) the above shot this week to transfer it to canvas and large prints.
The wide angle lenses I use (back in 2011 I used the Sigma 10-20 on DX, now the Sigma 12-24 on FX) give quite some distortion, especially in the far corners. It's not always easy to get rid of it.
This time I went through the whole process again to correct the Ferry House, and bring it back to its true proportions.
Why am I doing this? Well, because I have my first exhibition Saturday, September 29. Where? Over here in this old Ferry house itself! :) Due to the 350th anniversary of the Hoge Brug in Overschie there's all kinds of festivities. One of them is the Ferry House opening its doors in the afternoon. The owner asked me to show my Overschie photo work over here, and I gladly agreed.
Info: www.museumoudoverschie.nl/nl/main/agenda/350-jaar-hoge-br...
Everybody's welcome of course to meet and greet and you can win a nifty canvas too. At the end of the day I'm selling my large prints (50x75 and 30x45) at special prices.
I'll keep you posted. I'm busy with processing, flyers, prints and marketing the whole thing, so I'll be on and off. Ta!
November 2011, nice story...
The Ferry House (Veerhuis) which I regularly shoot in Overschie was sold to a new owner.
I got contacted by him recently, and was asked if I could deliver a blow-up of one of my recent shots he loved (see below), to put it on the wall of his new home. Of course I gladly accepted the assignment! Yesterday I brought a huge canvas of the image (see below) to the Ferry house (wasn't easy, it's located on an impossible spot!) which is heavily renovated at the mo'.
I got a 'guided tour' through the house (from 1747) and I found out that Anton Pieck had lived here, which was news to me. There was a huge stone in the living room wall saying "Anton Pieck, November 1982". You can find Anton Pieck's take on the Ferry house and church over here. It's really nice (from 1948). A very nice experience all-round! Thx Joost, succes with the renovation!

Shot it at "Gajan Fair".
Gajan a Shaivite folk festival, held on CHAITRA SANGKRANTI (the last day of Chaitra..according to eng calendar ,its in middle of april) and on full moon nights up to the full moon of Asadh. The festival is associated with various gods. There may thus be SHIVA's Gajan, the Gajan of DHARMA THAKUR, the Gajan of Nil etc. But the main object of this festival is to celebrate the marriage of the sun and the earth. The reason for this festival is perhaps to appease the sun and pray for rain during the hot, dry month of Chaitra.
The festival is arranged on the premises of Shiva temples. Those who take part in the festival after making vows are called sannyasi or bhaktya. They take sacrificial food and wear uturi (wrappers). Each one holds a staff. They try to satisfy the god through different acts of penance, such as piercing their tongues with nails, jumping upon thorns, walking on burning charcoal, etc. CHADAK PUJA is performed on the occasion of the Gajan festival. During this festival, processions are brought out from the premises of the temple of Shiva and taken to other villages. A pair of processionists take the roles of Shiva and Gauri and render dances. Other bhaktyas take the roles of Nandi, Bhrngi, ghosts and spirits, monsters and demons and dance along with Shiva and Gauri. During this time different verses are recited narrating the story of how Shiva's sleep was disturbed and going on to his marriage, his agricultural activities etc. This festival usually lasts for three days. During the gajan on Chaitra Samkranti, Kali dances are also performed in some places describing how the goddess slaughtered the monster Asura.

Rainy night in San Francisco.
I waited for the rain to stop to walk out on the pier and snap this panorama picture of the lit up pyramid and the SF skyline.
Over the holiday break I was a little obsessed with the SF skyline. I took a bunch of shots from all different angles of the city. This time of the year is great because they turn on the decorative lights on the buildings and crank up the "disco" ball on top of the pyramid. I plan to upload these shots over the next couple of days...
They are all stitched panorama pictures and are in extreme high resolution, supporting very large prints (up to 5 feet in high sharpness). If you are interested in a print of any of my pictures let me know... :-)

This was taken in Park Island Hong Kong SAR, China.
TSING MA is a bridge in Hong Kong, China. It is the world's seventh-longest span suspension bridge. The bridge was named after two of the islands in Hong Kong, namely Tsing Yi and Ma Wan . It has two decks and carries both road and rail traffic, which also makes it the largest suspension bridge of this type. The bridge has a main span of 1,377 metres (4,518 ft) and a height of 206 metres (676 ft). The span is the largest of all bridges in the world carrying rail traffic.
The 41 metres (135 ft) wide bridge deck carries six lanes of automobile traffic, with three lanes in each direction. The lower level contains two rail tracks. There are also two sheltered carriageways on the lower deck for maintenance access and as backup for traffic when particularly severe typhoons strike Hong Kong. Though road traffic would need to be closed in that case, trains could still get through in either direction.

"AS IT IS TOLD IN THE STARS…"
Like so many days before, the princess and her beloved guardian wolf went exploring. It should be told here that the bond she and the wolf have is a mystery for all. When the wolf was just 5 years old, a peculiar old lady, gifted the wolf to the family of the princess upon her birth and since then the wolf never left the princess’ side. He slept at her crib, watched over her as she played; she was never out of his sight.
As she grew older, they began to explore the lands together. This is something they loved to do. The wolf allowed her to ride on his back since he was very large and very strong.
During the nights the princess would lay cuddled against the wolf longing to have him forever.
On this particular night, which happened to be night of the princess’ 18th birthday, the princess lay with her wolf, as they have done since she was a child. The sound of thunder suddenly startled the wolf awake. Worried and protective as he always was he stood over his beloved princess. Nothing more happened and she caressed his fur to calm him and make him sleep again.
While exploring the next day in the mountains the wolf and princess came upon a small, strange, sparkling creature. Being his usual protective self the wolf growled at it. Worried that it might try to harm his precious princess. The princess stroked his fur softly, leaned to his ear, and whispered “Shhhhh, my wolf, it is just a fairy.” This did not calm him since he did not trust this creature one bit. He growled at her even more as the fairy smacked him on the nose with her sparkling stick. At that very moment the wolf felt a strange sensation, his mind began to spin. The fairy flew off quickly, giggling until she was out of sight. He looked up and whimpered at the princess, wanting a kiss on his nose in return for making the fairy go away. She leaned down and kissed him as she did so many times. This time he felt the kiss was different, it warmed his heart and soul as always but this time it also gave him a feeling as if there were butterflies in his tummy.
They wandered back into the village, returning home at dusk. The princess fed the wolf and they climbed into bed together. He licked her on the nose and rolled on his side so she could cuddle up to him. That night the wolf had strange dreams. He dreamt he was a human and not a wolf. The wolf was finally able to talk with her, to hold her, to kiss her, to do things he saw so many lovers do and only wished he could.
He woke from this nightmare and gasped. Looking down at his paws, he saw human hands. He quickly looked to his body; there was no fur, but instead his naked human skin. He lay back down moving closer to the princess, caressing her soft, silken skin. This sensation gave him tingles throughout his body. He kissed her neck, her cheek and finally her lips softly. The princess opened her eyes quickly, scared of this man next to her, pushing him away, screaming for her wolf to protect her. He placed his hand over her mouth and tried to calm her by saying, “ssshh…..it is I, my princess, your wolf.“
From that day forward the princess had her wolf as a human and as a strong wolf.
For many years they kept it a secret that he was a shape shifter…

Highest spot on Explore #197 on Jan 2, 2009. My Third photo in Explore. Thanks to all of you that visit my photostream and have so many wonderful things to say about my images.
I am going back to my archives. So here is just a typical nice photo with no wow factor or excitement. I need to go on a photo shoot to get some more material for my daily post. Hope you at least enjoy this calm, tranquil shot wishing for warmer weather.
Thank you for those that have left and in advance for those that do leave comments either positive or constructive. I am trying to give the world the best photography I can give and it is other professionals like you that help me to that goal.

Dimanche 3 Février après-midi, le DAL (Droit Au Logement) a occupé un gymnase rue du Renard pendant quelques heures. Après la promesse d'un rendez-vous avec Delanoë la semaine prochaine, les 150 à 200 militants et familles ont quitté les lieux vers 20h30, après une brève manifestation jusqu'à la place de l'Hôtel de Ville.
Dans le gymnase, les enfants passent le temps en jouant, sautant des espaliers sur les matelas.

When I rise above what I can see
Beyond the windows of eternity
And there I’m known for what I can be
For where I’ve flown to set me free.
More important than what I can become
Is the fact that I have the power of the sun
To make things grow within my heart
Inside of every vision wherein I start.
This moment makes me strong
And I remember well the song
That sings of purposes fulfilled
And of flowers fragrance that thrilled.
Recognize the power that is in this hour
Make your dreams for real with what you feel
Know inside what cannot hide that opens wide
And shows you that yes you can every now and when.
See it. Say it. Show it. Prove it. Become it.

Here is a recent image to break up my recent Tahoe photos. I had to go tonight and see the impending storm that is making its way down the Pacific coast. Early this morning we had hail, which is unique since we live right on the beach. I ran up the coast just North of Santa Cruz. The whole way up all I could do was keep my eyes on these crazy sun beams. Seriously the whole ocean was lit up by isolated beams hitting the surface North, South and West of Santa Cruz.
As I ran down the cliff to the beach I watched the beams disappear. I just missed them. I am sure that up North they were going off, but I was already down at the site by that time, and it would take 30 minutes to run up the hill and find another site.
Here is my version of the approaching storm, that is sure to bring a week of power outages, flooding and more snow and hail.

I lose control because of you babe
I lose control when you look at me like this
There's something in your eyes that is saying tonight
I'm not a child anymore, life has opened the door
To a new exciting life
I lose control when I'm close to you babe
I lose control don't look at me like this
There's something in your eyes, is this love at first sight
Like a flower that grows, life just wants you to know
All the secrets of life
It's all written down in your lifelines
It's written down inside your heart
You and I just have a dream
To find our love a place, where we can hide away
You and I were just made
To love each other now, forever and a day

Sella del diavolo.
La leggenda racconta che un giorno i diavoli, attratti dal fascino e dalla bellezza del golfo di Cagliari se ne impadronirono, Dio mandò allora i suoi angeli prediletti guidati dall'arcangelo Michele per scacciare Lucifero e i suoi adepti, ma nella fuga quest'ultimo perse la sua sella che cadde e si pietrificò, il promontorio fu quindi chiamato sella del diavolo e il golfo tanto ambito golfo degli angeli.
Veduta dalla zona del pomolo della sella.
La torre in primo piano è stata edificata durante la dominazione spagnola (1280 circa) ed è denominata del poueht, che in catalano significa pozzetto, per via di un'adiacente cisterna di origine punica, denominazione in seguito estesa a tutto il litorale col nome di Poetto.
Guardate la cartina, vi impressionerà la sua posizione.

From Wikipedia:
St Paul's is built in a revival of the style known as Gothic transitional, being partly Early English and partly Decorated. It was designed by the distinguished English architect William Butterfield, who was noted for his ecclesiastical work. The foundation stone was laid in 1880. Butterfield never saw the site and the building work was frequently delayed by disputes between Butterfield, in England, and the Church authorities on the spot. Butterfield resigned in 1884 and the building was finished by a local architect, Joseph Reed. Consequently the design of the spires differs greatly from those originally planned (similar to those built at Christ Church, South Yarra). The Cathedral Chapter has a scale model of the original completed design.
Mosteiro Santa Maria da Vitória, more commonly known as the Batalha Monastery, is a Dominican monastery in the Portuguese town of Batalha, in the District of Leiria, Portugal. It is one of the best and original examples of Late Gothic architecture in Portugal, intermingled with the Manueline style.
The Batalha Abbey was added in 1983 by the UNESCO to its list of World Heritage sites: whc.unesco.org/en/list/264
